Biomechanics An Introduction to Musculoskeletal Modeling

This full-color biomechanics textbook comprehensively covers biomechanics theory, while emphasizing and encouraging students? creativity through interactive examples using professional computer simulation software. It provides novel problem-solving techniques based on learning experiments and interactive computer simulations with design feedback requirements. Drawing on the author?s more than 10 years of teaching experience and influenced by an original learning model, this book teaches multidisciplinary methods of resolving and approaching complex problems, supported by mathematical analysis about how design parameters are influenced by a user?s physical and strength capabilities.

Undergraduate students in bioengineering and biomedical engineering taking the introductory course in biomechanics; undergraduate and graduate students in ergonomics; and undergraduate and graduate students in kinesiology and sports science.
